Transforming Your Company for Success

Evan Davis hosted an interesting programme with Ashley Almanza, Chief Executive of G4S, Gavin Oldham of Share Radio and Marco Amitrano of Price Waterhouse Cooper recently on his radio show, The Bottom Line. They were talking about their own successful approaches to business transformation, one of the most challenging aspects for the workplace. This discussion was very much about how identifying why changes need to happen paired with an insightful and clearly driven strategy formulation make for an effective and successful transition.

Whether a large corporation, SME or one-man set up, the process is the same and begins with an in depth business audit and understanding why you need to transform. Of the many things said during the interview, a recurring emphasis was on having a deep understanding of your marketplace, your customers, and your own capability and resources to serve those customers successfully. It is key.

Those companies who have struggled with the transformation process have tended to do so because of a sense of panic, a lack of connection to their customers and the growing impact of technology, which has lead to a loss of belief and confidence in them. It is essential to remain calm, take time to produce a clear vision and strategy, and with an engaging leadership and positive communication the visions and values of your company will guide you to a more efficient and productive future.

Internal and external thinking gives you a broad perspective when you come to making a difference to the way you audit the company. Here at Meadows Coaching we can help facilitate this process which can be so positive in moving transformation forward.
